“He’s one of those guys that — sorry for my language — that you say, ‘he’s an a-hole,’” Antetokounmpo laughed as he told ClutchPoints. “But when he plays on your team, like, ‘that’s my a-hole.’ You know? And I love him. We love playing with him. He’s a leader, he knows how to play the game. He’s a winner.”

The Bucks’ two-man game with Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo is finally clicking the way everyone imagined.
Why? Both players say it’s because Doc Rivers won’t stop force-feeding them reps in practice.

Clutch Points: “As an opponent, you hate him when you’re playing against him, but on your team, You’d probably love to have someone like that. He brings edge to the team… You gotta have some type of belief, toughness, edge. He brings that to our team and we didn’t have a lot of that.”… pic.twitter.com/3MICpRKVux -via Twitter @ClutchPointsApp / March 11, 2024

Doc said about the need for you and Giannis to stay in the paint and that everyone else to stay out on the perimeter to help with point of attack [defense]. What’s the key to be able to have consistently? Brook Lopez: “It’s just trust. It’s trust. It changes your defensive mentality when you know you have someone behind you that is going to have your back. You’re not getting blown by beat, but you’re into your guy and you’re making it difficult for him. If he happens to get by you, someone is going to be there to back you up. It’s just about getting that trust. It’s hard to build. It can be a little uncomfortable to be up there and vulnerable like that. But you have to have that trust.” -via SportsKeeda / March 10, 2024
